Yeah I missed 3 notes on expert vocal on this song (on controller). Drums is literal hell though lol Edit: update, I missed 0 notes but didn't flawless because of 1 strike :/
The drum roll at 3:08 is literally a nightmare. No matter how on time I am I can’t do it. It’s pissing me off because I can 100% the rest of the song now.
The drums are really hard, but it seems so fun to play. I’m starting to get the hang of it on Medium, and I want to learn it on hard. Thanks for the vid!
hard and expert are basically the same thing. I personally find Expert easier since the notes are wider and more spaced out. Whenever I play on hard my brain just can't process what's going on screen. Basket Case for example is so easy on expert compared to hard.
Fortnite festival really is the best thing they added this season, still currently fishing out my guitar hero controller Also what speed did you have this on?
@@BREADZILLA1The track speed, yeah. The song is still played exactly the same and the notes are still played exactly the same, but they’re just more spaced out. Go to the Game Settings and at the bottom - in the Festival section - you can tune, change the track speed and the background opacity.
this fortnite festival shit get serious!! a friend of a friend took that #1 i got by literally 1 perfect and i conceded i think i'm done grinding mr brightside forever LOL
@@EpicTkoWko real! Only rhythm games I’ve ever played have been guitar hero/rockband, so I’m still trying to get used to the judgement timings. I’m trying to get higher on highway tune lead, but I’m stuck at around top ~75 cause I can never hit more perfects :/
@@colbyvi the judgements can be kind of brutal especially on songs with a lot of pull notes - I have no idea what the timing window is but it feels both fairly generous and extremely easy to slip from at the same time. doesn't help that there's no hitsounds and there isn't an easy way to tell if you're hitting early or late
something i dont think people have noticed with festival but whatever instrument you choose is louder then the other instruments so when i wanted to learn mr brightside on the drums (im a drummer) i just listened to this video 15 times or more
Yeah this version of the song is actually a bit different than the original. A lot of the drum parts seem to have been altered by AI, Epic, or The Killers themselves. Like I just can't find the version of the song that has the drums exactly like this: 0:49 and 0:56
I feel like trying this on a controller or keyboard is always going to be more difficult. With a drum set you can literally bounce off one beat onto the next one, but you can’t really do that with buttons.
They are working on compatibility with instruments that will be introduced probably when they update the tracklist but they haven't confirmed exactly when that'll be
I was going to get the high score out of my friends on every song on every instrument and after playing on drums I can safely say of fuck that I’m doing everything else
i still don’t understand how to do the first part with the rapid hi-hats, i know how the release notes works but damn it’s really confusing to get the timing down on that
I treat them like a normal note. When there’s practically no gap you can just press it like normal. Might not hit it with a ‘Perfect’, but it won’t give you a strike or anything.
Can y'all try to beat that one dude's score on Vocals for Brightside? Man somehow reached over 200k and yet I'm sitting on the top 52 merely half his, like HOW
The score isn't legit. There's been a bug for a while where (IIRC) band overdrive counts for solo scores, and also scores are sometimes posted to the wrong instrument leaderboards. Nothing that can be done until Epic fixes it and removes any glitched scores like that, unfortunately.
@@EpicTkoWko dang, hopefully soon enough scores will be fixed, other than that, keep killing it with those (FC) scores, you and your friends are absolutely awesome
@@EpicTkoWkothat makes a lot of sense as to why there were some insanely high scores on like I on drums and bass but they aren't even FCs . Don't know if that was fixed already though, haven't checked.
How the hell and what are you on that you can keep up with that I'm a drummer and I can't really get past medium using a PlayStation 4 he has to be using PC? Thanks for the video
So you can kinda play along with it if you are not tabbed in to keep messing with the play and go or whatever, And I remeber playing actualy in game and doing really well until that just real long drum roll sort of thing- like half way through one would slip by or id over click and scratch >:()
Ive gotten SO CLOSE to flawless on thism 3 times ive had 100% with one strike on the 16th note drum rolls, wether it be the short two, the medium one, or the stupidblong onenthat goes for 8 measures. I suck at those Im perfect everywhere else and am currently around 6000 on the leaderboard
They're pull/lift notes - you have to hold the previous note and then release on the triangle. They're a very fun part of the mode when you get used to them but I do think they need more intuitive visuals.
@@EpicTkoWkoHow many in TOTAL, though? I feel like that’s the answer they were looking for - because I know it’s the one I was looking for. 😂 I’ve attempted Expert on it about a dozen times in total now. Even if I can do the first set of notes right, I always mess them up further into the song.

@@RichMaxwell It's ultimately representing the same thing though, it's just formatted a little differently.

I cried when I attempted this, I almost broke my fingers. I can only do bass and vocals on expert flawlessly, drums are literal nightmare

it’s just the first part for me
Yeah ik, vocals, bass and lead are piss easy but the drums are absolute insanity
its really fun and dynamic to play drums on this song, prob my personal fav.
Yeah I played it once on like Hard before I started expert… I still haven’t touched drums since on it😭

Expert drums on Xbox is hell and it’s a challenge I’m up for!
Will this content also come with a handheld camera version? I would love to see the current synchronization
You wouldn't be able to notice the latency in a 60fps video most likely even if it was present
after listening to mr bright Side on youtube i noticed that they didn’t put all the drum parts in
💀 imagine how all the people feel complaining with all the songs we have now
You would think it would help to be a practiced drummer irl…it kinda does? I still struggle with this song, props to you lol

Me too. Gotta borrow the drumkit from my brother tho lol. I was never too. Big a fan of drumming so I never bought one.

Spam it, you can treat them as a normal note.
On the spaced out ones, i like to hold it down.
Slightly hold them down, the tiniest bit, like the other guy said, treat them as regular notes

97% on this song my hands hurt 😭😭😭

Skill issue
@@ToPimpAWormNah, is just that the controller is not the best for this

When playing with a computer keyboard, do you still use two hands or just one and stretch the pinky?
I still only get 99% on expert
Can anyone tell me if rb4 instruments are compatible? Might need to assemble the band again if so
I cant find the track, help me i want this song
It should be in the shop
i plugged the keyboard into my xbox because no way😭😭
HOW DO YOU HIT THE LONG STRING OF NOTES CAUSE I CANNOT
Bro this is not Fortnite it's literally guitar hero now
I hate this song now. I tried so much but I just have not gotten the 100 yet. always 99
did you doubletap or release the lift note?
releasing them, just tapping again seems like it would be WAY harder
@@EpicTkoWkodo you release on the lift note or after it?
@@ItsKevin183 release on the lift note, like u would a proper guitar
